      1. Set your air fryer at 180°C for 12 minutes and press START. Your nutricook air fryer will preheat automatically.

      2. Meanwhile, season the chicken tenders with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.

      3. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with the crushed hot cheetos.

      4. Dip each chicken tender first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the crushed hot cheetos, making sure they are well coated.

      5. Once the air fryer is preheated, place the breaded chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not crowded.
